Learn more about the Sequences Sunburst


Alejandro Olvera Velasco

Product Manager, Principal • MicroStrategy


Description

Take an interactive look at hierarchical data represented as multi-colored concentric circles. Each level of the hierarchy is represented by one ring, or circle, with the innermost circle as the top of the hierarchy. The circle in the center represents the root node, with the hierarchy moving outward from the center. A segment of the inner circle bears a hierarchical relationship to those segments of the outer circle that lie within the angular sweep of the parent segment.  
Sequences Sunburst charts are most effective at showing how one ring is broken into its contributing pieces. One use case is to summarize navigation paths through a web site. The visualization makes it easy to understand visits that start directly on a product page compared to visits where users arrive on the site's home page and navigate from there.
